Enfield
Town v Rothwell Town
(FA Cup 1st Qualifying Round
Replay) - Tues 18th September - 7.45 k/o
Boss Ian Jackson says his young side have "nothing
to be frightened of" when they go to Enfield Town for their
FA Cup first qualifying round replay tonight.
The Bones travel to Essex knowing that the
tie must be settled tonight - even if that means extra-time and
penalties - with a home tie against Hillingdon Borough of Southern
League Division One South & West awaiting the winners.
"I'll be looking for a win tonight because
I genuinely feel there was nothing about Enfield that I saw on Saturday
which scared me," he said. "We should have won it on goal
chances alone and if I was disappointed in anything it was that
I don't think anybody in our side had enough belief."
"We dominated them for the first 20 minutes.
Then we conceded a bad goal and we looked like a side that was scared
of doing something wrong," he said. "In the second half
we got more aggressive in our approach and took the game to them
by pushing up the field and using the pace of Fazel Koriya and Kevin
Byrne up front."
"I think those two really scared
them and if we take our game to them again tonight, then they won't
be able to live with us. There's no doubting the ability we've got
in the side and once they believe in themselves we'll find the consistency
we're after."
Jackson also confirmed he would be sticking
with the same squad from Saturday for tonight's game which means
no recall for Michael Tolton who was a late withdrawal from Saturday's
game.
"Everybody has come through from
the weekend absolutely fine - so I'll have exactly the same squad
as the first game and I'm looking for a similar performance, "
he added. "If we can just have a bit more luck in front of
goal, then it will be a happy coach back home."
Rothwell from: Smith, Challinor, Brown,
Greasley, Sturgess, Flannigan, Sneddon, Purton, Boyle-Chong, March,
Byrne, Stead, Bridgeford, Koriya, Richie-Smith, Hyem.
